--- Comment #9 from Liz Rea <wizzy...@gmail.com> ---
This counter-counter patch creates and chmod the file before the dump begins,
and removes it when we are done with the file. It will be new each day, in case
the password changes on the database. If the file exists for some unforeseen
reason, the contents will be overwritten (and it'll still be deleted at the
end).
The only thing I can think of that might make this better, would be to put the
temp .cnf file in /etc/koha/sites/<instance>/ instead of in /var/spool.
Having sent this patch in, now I'm wondering if we shouldn't just create this
config file per instance when we koha-create, and keep it in
/etc/koha/sites/<instance>
I think I'll do a counter patch for that approach as well, I don't like having
the file with passwords even temporarily in a directory that could potentially
have dodgy permissions (because people [no one I know though] do strange things
with backups sometimes).
I suppose if they've got in there, they've got the DB anyway so eh, not sure it
matters buuuut... /etc/ will be safer and more persistent than /var/spool
anyway.
